    The most modern up scale bar I've seen in sometime.
    Gary B.

    When I was in the area on business I had a craving for Indian cuisine and found " An Indian Affair" via Yelp. It's not like any Indian restaurant I've ever visited in terms of their presentation...no cultural touch stones or icons in fact if I came here blindfolded I wouldn't think I was at an Indian Restaurant. It has a modern almost night club vibe...indeed the background/mood music was a mix of lively Hindi language music and other selections. And yet, it's gas all the awesome flavors and dishes that one would expect from a traditional Indian restaurant. I ordered: Chicken samosa: All the Indian restaurants I've had samosas (in the United Stated) use ground chicken as opposed to what was used here which was shredded chicken. For me, the difference in the use of finely shredded chicken vs ground is a world of difference not just in texture but especially flavor! Coupled with a crunchy shell...could have ordered many more and would have been satisfied. Mango Lassi: sweet and rich mango flavored. Fenugreek lamb curry: Fenugreek isn't a spice I see at Indian restaurants in the US very often. So I had to give this a try! Lots of umami flavor to this dish with very little bitterness which is what I expected with anything having fenugreek. It's wasn't sweet but not bitter either. Also, the lamb was tender. Garlic Basil Naan: as good as I've had at other restaurants Kulfi Falooda; The first time I've ever had this or given the opportunity to have this dessert. Ice cream with glass noodles is the short description...the ice cream was great the noodle part I could do without because ultimately the texture was very soggy. While "An Indian affair" is stripped of outward tradition, it's only an outward appearance! The food is great and what I understand as well made Indian cuisine. Lastly the service was fair, not fast or slow but noticeable. There was one person who serviced like 6 tables, is that a lot? I think so. Still when I'm in the area, I'll be back nor would I hesitate to recommend them.

    I love the ambiance here. The music is great, the staff is friendly and the food is delicious. It was my second time here and I expected nothing less than great.

    Fried momos with chicken & veggie filling

    Great happy hour appetizers and drinks, service was very good and a nice place to go for a date or with the family. We tried veggie pakora, paneer pakora, fried momos, fries w indian spice, and a couple cocktails - each was $5 Canadian which is $3.50 USD. Each appetizer was tasty, my favorite was veggie pakora and the fries were also surprisingly good. We also shared butter chicken entree which had a nice savory flavor, not as buttery or sweet as I've had in US. Garlic naan was quite garlicky and crispy, very good.

    Budget-Friendly Indian Buffet with Room for Improvement These days, an all-you-can-eat (AYCE) self-serve buffet for $13.99 (Monday to Thursday) is a bargain, which is why we decided to try this Indian buffet. The restaurant is located across from Willowbrook Shopping Mall, with ample parking available. Upon arrival, the entrance door felt a bit small, but the interior was spacious. We were seated just a few steps from the buffet, making access convenient. The server promptly brought a jug of water, and we were ready to start. Food Selection & Quality The buffet offered a good variety of hot and cold dishes. Starting at the salad section (where orange bites were also available), we made our way to the hot dishes, which included: Butter Chicken (a must-have) Curry Lamb Chicken dishes Pakora Dahl Rice Tandoori Chicken et cetera The food was consistently replenished, and the serving areas were kept relatively clean. A nice touch was the frequent offering of fresh naan, without us needing to ask. However, there were no ice cream or mango lassi options, which some other Indian buffets typically provide. On both visits, we also noticed no jalebi or Manchurian, despite hoping for some variety. Instead, the only dessert was a large pot of Gulab Jamun, which was overly sweet--not ideal for those watching their sugar intake. Service & Atmosphere While the food was solid, the service left much to be desired. One major disappointment was the chai policy--it was complimentary, but only for one cup. When we requested a refill, the waitress gave us a dirty look and curt response, making for an unpleasant experience. Additionally, napkin supply was stingy--only one was wrapped with the utensils, and even after requesting extra, they were never provided. Final Thoughts This special price was only valid in March, from Monday to Thursday, and despite the mediocre service, we visited twice due to the affordability and food quality. However, given the long drive from downtown Vancouver to Langley and the lackluster service, we won't be returning. While the buffet itself is a good deal, the overall experience fell short of expectations. Rating: 3/5 (Great food for the price, but poor service and limited dessert options.)

    Lunch Indian Buffet is served (11:00 - 14:30 seven days a week) has been going strong for 11 years now since it's opening and is conveniently located in a strip mall right across from Willowbrook Mall. Heard great things about the place and decided to make the long trek into Langley, BC with 4 friends to try for ourselves. The place is nicely decorated with a modern look and still under renovations at the time of our visit to expand either the buffet and / or seating area. I really hope their expansion plans are mainly for the buffet area as it's quite small so lineups can form in a very short time, as throughout our entire seating time customers were leaving and coming at a constant rate. Even with a small self serve area, the offerings covered all you would expect from a South Asian buffet with as assortment of desserts like Kheer (Traditional Rice Pudding), Tandoori Chicken, and curries (Butter Chicken). One complimentary cup of Chai Tea is included in your meal. Everything tasted OK, nothing really outstanding, but for $17.99 per head can't really complain. Parking is plentiful within the private strip mall lot.

    Tasty Indian buffet (lunch only) by Willowbrook Mall. Parking is available in the strip mall lot. Place is pretty modern. Looks like they are expanding as of the time of writing. The buffet food section is tucked away in a corner, with some new construction. Food is pretty typical of Indian buffet. There are some 8 salad items and 16 hot food items. Quite a decent selection I must say. There are several types of curry, the usual tandoori chicken, and some paneer and jafrezi, among others. Food quality is pretty good, though like most other Indian buffets, everything starts to taste the same after the 2nd plate. The buffet includes only 1 cup of chai tea, with no refills. This is the only negative that comes to mind. Also the tiny buffet area gets pretty packed, but I imagine this will be rectified with the new construction. Worth stopping by if one is in the area.

    The rice and vegetarian dishes
    Carolyn L.

    This place has very affordable food. $17.99 lunch buffet? Even on a Sunday, that's incredible. The prices for the entrees on the menu are generally under $20, which are also very good prices. The place looks clean and nice. Very spacious but lots of booths which are not really the best for buffet. Maybe that's intentional so that people don't get up so often to get refills. The food section is decent, with 4-6 dishes for the proteins, vegs and appetizers. Only 2 options for desserts (gulab jamun and rice pudding). They do top up the trays of food quickly. The food definitely tastes better when you get it fresh and hot. Once it becomes cool or cold (because you are talking with your friend), it is not so nice. Eat first, chat later. Chai is included but only one small cup which is a pity. I wish it is refillable. The food itself is ok, not the best but it does the job of filling you up. I don't have any favorite dish there or something which makes me want to go back often. Parking is available at the lot out front. Lots of big trucks which take up two spots. Park carefully to avoid your car being dinged. If you live in this area, great place to dine at. I'll still come here once in a while.

    Goat curry and garlic naan
    Kimberly H.

    There's a reason this place is listed as a top eatery of Langley - it's WONDERFUL We got in to town and luckily came in before 5pm to catch the tail end of happy hour - 1/2 off drinks and appetizers. It was such a great deal we definitely over ordered but the food was SO good that I regret nothing!!! We followed the recommendation for goat curry and it was on point. Each of the samosas were scrumptious. The ambiance is hip and all the staff we encountered were absolutely lovely. Do yourself a favor and make the stop!!!

    My husband and I visited this restaurant for dinner in the month of November. I saw their Instagram ad once and thought to give it a try. But, to my disappointment, our experience wasn't that good with this restaurant. The place was almost fully booked, and it was very loud. There was loud music and the seating arrangement was done in a way that we could hear noises from other tables as well. Personally, I don't like restaurants that are so loud. I mean, you cannot enjoy your company or the food if you get so much disturbance around. Their service was very slow, we didn't even get our appetizers together. We waited for like 20-25 mins to get our apps and drinks all on our table. To be honest, even the food wasn't that good in taste. For our main course, we ordered two curries and one daal makhani along with butter naans. First we received lacchha paratha instead of naan. And we never got one of the curries we ordered. The servers were in so much rush, none of them cared to ask if we have received our order ok. After so many failed attempts to catch a gaze with our server, finally I told her that we never got Malai Kofta we ordered and we have got wrong order of naans as well. After waiting for another 10-15 mins, I received the food we actually ordered. After we finished our dinner, we had to again wait for 10-15 mins to receive our to-go boxes and the bill. It was quite frustrating & disappointing!!!

    Skyball
    Priya C.

    Definitely try their happy while its still on. 50% of ALL drinks (including non alcoholic) and appetizers. That's a really good selection and a steal of a deal. Apart from that we really liked the ambience at An Indian Affair and would definitely come back for dinner. Both our servers were super friendly and attentive. All the drinks were good, jalepeno maragarita, LIIT. The skyball looked gorgeous in blue. For food my favorite was the vegetarian manchurian. Hubby loved the palak chaat and chili momo's. Achari soya chaap was good too. Happy hour is from 3-5pm daily, yes its on weekends too!

    Tasting various food here. All of them were good

If you like spicy they can do spicy, but if you also have a milder palette, they can accommodate that as well. *MUST TRY* Fish Pakora (5/5) - $12.99 Taste: The fish is soft, tender, and flaky, coated with just the right amount of spicy chickpea batter - not too thick, and nice and crispy. Topped off with their mint chutney sauce that is cooling and neutralizes the spice. Portion Size: Sharing portion (3-4 people) *MUST TRY* Mutton Biryani (5/5) - $17.99 Taste: Their biryani's are a must try and if you enjoy gamier meats, go with the mutton! It's the perfect blend of spice and the side sauces make this dish the perfect combo - with a spicier sauce and a yogurt based sauce, the blend of the two ensure you don't fall short of any culinary adventure. Portion Size: Large portion - can be shared as an entree for 1.5-2 people. Chicken Lollipop (5/5) - $13.99 Taste: Crispy deep-fried drumsticks (non-spicy option). You can't go wrong here! Portion Size: 6 pieces Chicken Curry (5/5) - $14.99 Taste: Strong tomato base flavours, this dish was delicious with buttered roti or served over basmati rice. Portion Size: Moderate portion - good size for a single entree for one person or shared between 2 people with an appetizer on the side. [Value for Money] Overall, this restaurant serves large, shareable portions at an extremely reasonable price point. Not to mention that the food is delicious and authentic! I'll definitely be back to try more of their dishes!

Restaurant was not that busy when we stopped by shortly after the dinner service started. Price was reasonable at $24 a person. Food selection was decent. However, the food temperature was not hot enough for my liking and was only slightly warm for many of the items. Also, we had to ask for roti as it was not automatically offered. The roti arrived pipping hot. My favourite items were the gulab jamun and kheer as both were served in the appropriate temperatures. The gulab jamun was served warm and the kheer served chilled. I did enjoy trying a number of different types of curries and the flavours were quite delicious. Restaurant was clean and tidy. Service was efficient. Our server stopped by regularly to clear dirty plates and refill water. I would consider coming back to try their lunch buffet to see if it was just a one off day. I do think this restaurant is a great option in the area if they can work out the small details. Overall, it was a 3.5 star experience. I had to knock a star down because of the food temperature.

But yes my fave dishes that i was able to make room for me in my belly was the goat curry/ butter chicken/ chili fish/ chickpea curry ... mango flavoured icecream / naan bread. I also snacked on a lot of these colourful looking chips? Haha they reminded me of the asian prawn chips that come on the side of peking duck! If you check this place out please try! I even dipped it in icecream and ooo it was yummy! The service was quite pleasant too. They did an excellent job at replenishing food and checking in with customers to see if we needed more water / naan / napkins etc! Loveeeeeed this! Family friendly place/ ambiance was relaxing for a meal date or even if you wanted to watch sports. They've got massive tvs so if you want to grab drinks it's a perfect place too. Lots of parking outside and they take all types of payments. Hope you enjoy your next food adventure!!
